1966 Ignition Switch

NCRS Judging Manual page 28 "The key may be removed in the "off" position only."

I can remove mine in all of the positions, can this be fixed?

The answer is YES. I am assuming you have the correct ignition switch in the car. Key may be worn excessively or the lock internals worn excessively.

You can try the key first. If not remove ignition switch and send to a good locksmith. We have a few very good ones here at NCRS.

Tim are you using a hardware store style key? GM keys works better. its worth a try. guys like Pete Lindahl make original keys.

Pete has cut me new keys before also. I would sent him the cylinder, it has the code on it, that way he can inspect it and cut new keys. If there is problem with the cylinder he can take car of that too. Better to kill two birds with one stone.
